Now come's the time for the door to close
Strike the statues pose
Wipe your eyes,blow your nose.
Its OK, but you can't stay
We've both got to move on and make our way.
Relax your mind,I'm sure you'll find
Some form of salvation
Some calming sensation
To Warm your soul, pay the toll
to Cross the bridge of bliss
Get that kiss, that marks your wife
Transforms your life
dulls the knife, i left in your back.
stacked though cracked from the lack of use
Because i left it there, caused all despair
used and abused you.
I'm sorry, but i can't let you, let me hurt you more
I'll shut the door
shut you out, cut you out
of my mental picture
Lifestyle Fixture.
I'll let you go, my first gift to you.
I wish i knew, How untrue this would be
and you still can't see,we
were never meant to be..

Another write by you with fantastic rhythm. I really like this one. I think you hit the prompt very well.
Excellent metaphor and imagery, as well. Have some clappy dudes!

i love how alot of your rhyme is internal rather than all end line rhyme. Nice piece.
